Fireworks and barbecues, parades and patriotism. During my childhood, I spent many 4th of July holidays in Comfort, TX (just a quick drive up I-10), taking part in their small-town parade and celebration in the park. The list below includes events in San Antonio and surrounding areas where you can make your own family memories. Have yourself […]

Alamo City Moms Blog is happy to partner with Love to Swim and Tumble School to make you aware of their classes, Parents’ Night Out, and family-friendly activities. I have never considered myself a confident swimmer. I’m self taught, and although my body can tread water, I have always shied away from water sports and recreational activities. My husband […]

Fall, schmall. We live in Texas, so rather than crisp air and colorful leaves crunching beneath our feet, fall means the weather is still warm, meaning outdoor adventures are still possible, though sometimes it’s still so muggy that air-conditioned activities are calling your name.
